Remove any dirt or dust from the mains plug’s pins before connecting to the power supply.
• Dust build-up on the mains plug can cause insulation failure, especially in humid conditions. This can cause short
circuit, re or electric shock. Unplug the mains lead and wipe it with a dry cloth. Never use a wet or damp cloth.
Plug your appliance into the socket, making sure the connection is secure.
• A loosely connected mains plug can cause re or electric shock.
Install the refrigerator in a well-ventilated area.
• The more refrigerant there is in an appliance, the larger the room it should be installed in. If there’s a refrigerant uid
leak, and the appliance is in a small room, the build up of combustible gases is more likely. This can cause re or
explosion. As a guide, for every 8
g of coolant, you’ll need at least 1 cubic metre of space in the room. The data plate
inside the appliance tells you how much refrigerant your refrigerator contains.
The refrigerant (R600a) used in the refrigerator and the gases in the insulation material (cyclopentane) are both
ammable. They also require special disposal procedures.
• Before you dispose of the appliance, make sure none of the pipes on the back are damaged. Refrigerant or gas leaks
can cause re or explosion.
Unplug the refrigerator before cleaning and servicing.
• Failure to do this can cause electric shock.
If you smell burning or see smoke coming from the refrigerator, disconnect the power immediately and please
consult authorized service centre.
• Failure to do this can cause re or electric shock.
-WARNING:
Keep ventilation openings, in the appliance enclosure
or in the built-in structure, clear of obstruction.
• Failure to do this could result in re or explosion because
refrigerant cannot disperse if it leaks.
CAUTION
Indicates risk of injury or damage to property.
Do not put glass bottles or containers in the freezer.
• When the contents freeze, the glass may break and cause injury.
Do not touch the inside walls of the freezer or items stored in the freezer with wet hands.
• Your skin can become frozen onto the interior wall, or items stored in the freezer.
If there’s a power cut, avoid opening the refrigerator frequently or putting unchilled
food in it.
• This can cause the temperature in the refrigerator to rise and adversely affect sanitation.
Also, be careful of the gap between the fridge and freezer doors, especially if they are
both open at the same time.
• This may cause personal injury.
When opening the refrigerator, be careful not to pinch your ngers at the “pinch point”
areas. In particular, when opening the fridge door, be careful to avoid the potential
pinch point between the fridge and freezer doors.
• This can cause personal injury.

Installation
This section explains how to install your appliance for the most energy-efcient, safe and quiet operation.
Dimensions
W600 x D634 x H1850 (mm)
Unpacking your appliance
Remove all packaging and tape.
Choosing the right location
Ventilation
As the appliance gives off heat during operation, it should be installed
in a well-ventilated, dry room with plenty of space above and behind it,
as shown in Figure 1.
If you can hear it vibrating, it needs more space.
(However, if there is a wall on the side of the refrigerator, a space of
32.5 mm or more is required on the hinge side for the doors to open
90° or more.)
Temperature
The room temperature affects the refrigerator’s energy-efciency, i.e.
how much electricity it uses to chill and freeze foods.
For the best results, install your refrigerator:
● away from direct sunlight
● away from radiators, cookers or other heat sources
● where the room temperature corresponds to the climate
classication for which the appliance is designed. Refer to the
Specications Section for your appliance’s climate classication.
● Extreme temperatures or environmental conditions may have
negative impact on its performance.
Stored food may spoil.
Level
After carefully positioning the appliance so as not to damage oor
surfaces, install on a level oor that’s strong enough to support a fully
loaded refrigerator.
You can adjust the level of the refrigerator by screwing or unscrewing
the two adjustable legs as shown in Figure 2.
This prevents vibration and noise.
If the appliance is to stand on a carpeted or vinyl oor, put a solid board
underneath it rst. This will protect your oor against possible colour
change due to heat given off by the appliance.
Refrigerator door
The refrigerator’s door hinges can be swapped over, from the right side
to the left, so that the doors open in the opposite direction. If this is
more convenient in your home, please contact our service centre listed
on the attached sheet or access to our Web site
(http://www.panasonic.com).
We could not be held responsible if you replace the hinges by yourself.

Installing the distance guides
The appliance is supplied with two distance guides which should be
installed on the lower part of the housing to prevent from pushing the
appliance too close to the wall. Appliance may also be installed without
the spacers; however, this may increase power consumption.
Insert the distance guides into the holes circled in the gure. (The
distance guides are included in the bag that contains the manual and
other items.)
Cleaning
After installation, wipe the appliance clean with warm water.
Connecting the mains plug to the household mains socket

Notes:
• Cooling may take longer in the summer months or at other times when the room temperature is higher.
• If you need to unplug the refrigerator, wait at least 10 minutes before you plug it back in again. If not, you might damage
the compressor.
• If you’re not going to use the refrigerator for a long time, unplug it from the mains.
Ambient room temperature
You’ll nd your refrigerator’s climate classication on the rating plate in the left side of the fridge compartment. It shows
the room temperature the appliance is designed to work in.
Climate classication Permitted ambient temperature
SN (Extended Temperate) +10 °C to 32 °C
N (Temperate) +16 °C to 32 °C
ST (Subtropical) +16 °C to 38 °C

When cleaning inside or outside your refrigerator, do not use:
● alkaline detergents - they can crack plastic parts.
● grinding dust, soap powder, oil-based cleaners, hot water, brushes, acids, benzenes, solvents or alcohol-based
solutions - all can damage the refrigerator’s surfaces and plastic parts.
Make sure you wipe off any stains from edible oils, which can also damage plastic parts.

Maintenance check
● Is the mains lead damaged?
● Does the mains plug get hot?
● Is the mains plug rmly in the mains socket?
If the mains lead is damaged, please consult an authorized service centre. DO NOT attempt to replace these items
yourself.
Extended disuse
If you’re not going to use the refrigerator for a long time, unplug it and clean the mains plug as described above. Then
leave the doors open for 2-3 days. This lets the interior dry out properly, and prevents odour and the build up of mould.
Do not switch the refrigerator on and off repeatedly. It will last longer if you leave it switched on during normal use.
Before moving or transporting your refrigerator
① Remove all items.
② Unplug it.
③ Raise the adjustable leg.
④ Pull, or ‘walk’ the refrigerator towards you.
⑤ Put a cloth on the left corner of the evaporation pan. Slant the
refrigerator for the cloth to absorb water. (Be sure there is no
remaining water.)

If the trouble persists, disconnect the mains plug and contact your dealer or an authorized service centre.
General
You hear unusual sounds from the
refrigerator.
• Has the refrigerator been installed on a sturdy and level oor?
• Have sufcient clearances been provided around the refrigerator?
• Is anything vibrating on the top of the refrigerator?
• It’s normal to hear some noises when the refrigerator starts or stops operation.
You hear a sound after the
compressor has shut down.
• This is normal, and is often caused by refrigerant owing back to the
compressor.
You hear a sound after you have
opened or closed the door.
• This is normal, and is due to the difference in air pressure between the inside
and outside of the refrigerator.
You hear the sound of air or water
owing after you have opened
the door.
• This is caused by refrigerant owing the internal pipework.
You hear a continuous whining
sound.
• This sound is heard while the fan for circulating the cold air is operating.
• Has the food been packed too tightly together or is the room temperature high?
In cases like these, the fan for circulating the cold air runs at high speed so it
makes a loud noise.
The compressor is quite loud. • Has the food been packed too tightly together or is the room temperature high?
In cases like these, the compressor runs hard so it’s normal for the compressor
to be louder.
The compressor has been running
for a long time.
• When the mains plug has been connected for the rst time, the compressor
runs longer than usual in order to cool down the inside of the refrigerator until
the set temperatures are reached.
• Has Super Freeze Mode or Super Cool Mode been set?
• Have the doors been opened and closed frequently? Are the doors completely
shut?
• Have the food items been packed too tightly together or is the room
temperature high?
• When many food items are placed in the refrigerator at one time, the
compressor will need to run for a longer period.
Condensation forms on the
outside of the refrigerator.
• Condensation may form when the humidity in the room is high and is normal.
Wipe it off using a dry cloth.
The outside of the refrigerator
feels hot to the touch.
• After the power of the refrigerator is turned on, the refrigerator may become
warm until the interior of the compartment is sufciently cooled down. The
refrigerator may become warm even after the compartments have been cooled
down. This is due to the operation of the heat radiation pipe equipped on the
refrigerator for the purpose of preventing condensation, and is not malfunction.
The controls on the control panel
cannot be operated.
• Is the power to the refrigerator on?
The alarm sounds. • The fridge door has been left ajar. Close the doors.

The fridge is not chilling (and
the freezer is not freezing)
satisfactorily.
• Is the set temperature too high?
• Is the refrigerator exposed to direct sunlight or positioned near a heating
appliance?
• Have sufcient clearances been provided around the refrigerator?
• Have the food items been packed too tightly together or is the room
temperature high?
• Have the doors been opened and closed frequently?

temporarily.
• During the cold season or when the room temperature is low, it may feel as if
the refrigerator is not chilling.
There is a difference between
the set temperature and actual
temperature.
• When warm food is put inside the refrigerator, the temperature will rise
temporarily.
Food in the fridge freezes. • Is the set temperature for the fridge too low?
• Has the food been placed at the back of the fridge?
The area near the back wall is where the temperatures are coldest so avoid
placing food which may freeze easily here.
Condensation forms in the fridge
and drawers.
• Condensation may form when the door has been opened and closed frequently
or when it has not been shut completely, or when the room humidity is high.
Wipe off the condensation using a dry cloth.
It is hard to open the freezer door. • The door is sometimes difcult to open just after it has been closed.
• The difference in air pressure between the inside and outside of the freezer
may sometimes make it hard to open the freezer door. Wait a few moments,
and then try opening the door.
It smells inside the refrigerator. • Were any food items with strong odours sealed before they were placed in the
fridge?
